so i woke this morning wondering how the clergy leadership of our church can be held accountable for the breech of trust in making decisions without any discernment or consultation with the laity. then i recalled this scene

update: jay has just posted a recent update from the bishop, which is good news and makes my prior statements seem ever more accurate in that our leadership jumped onto a vision that was not discerned through the traditional methodist church processes. yes they are slow, but they are faithful to the communities and inaccuracies of information and hurt feelings are avoided when done properly.
